upon their effects. This started the
matter and divers creditors came on
with attachments 80 that soon every

probable total liabilities aggregate be-

Protracted Meeting,

Such q meeting, popularity called
revival meeting, has been in progress
In our city the past two weeks, and
has been attended with happy results.
The use and value of protracted meet.
ings in community is almost univer-
sally recognized. This meeting in
Miles City has been Of union chsrac-
ter, and has been led by Rev. C. c.
Frost, Of Butte City. Mr.. Frost is an
evangelist, although he Is an ordained
gospel minister, and has been pas
tor both In New England and at Butte,
The office Of the evangelist is q scrip
tural Office. Philip and Timothy
were evangelists. In the apostolic
church we read Of both pastors and
evangelists. The work Of the pastor
and the work Of the evangelist are
complemental-tbe one aiding the
other-the one supplementing the
other. The pastor may not be able TO
do the work of the evangelist, neither
may the evangelist be able to do the
routine work Of the ordinary pastor,
but they mutually aid each other.
This meeting began in the Baptist
church, but the place Of assembling
was changed the second week to the
Presbyterian church because the audi.
torium is larger and was needed to
accommodate the large congregations
that attended the services. The meet
ing is conducted quietly and orderly
and attended with no animal excite
ment. There have been number of
hopeful conversions and q feeling OF
deep seriousness pervades many
hearts. The are some good Christian
people who have their msgivings
about what are called sudden conver.
sions, out, there are numerous piles
In the New Testament of such conver-
sions. We have the example of Paul,
who was suddenly converted, and OF
the three thousand converted on the
day Of Pentecost. In many Of the
miracles Of Christ, where deafness or
blindness were cured, or health re.
stored. the cure and restoration were
sudden anu instantaneous, and as In
these miracles Of nature, 70 in the
miracles Of grace involved In .conver
sion; sometimes such changes are sud
den as sometimes they are gradual
There is NO. .stereotyped way by which
sinners are brought to Christ ant
saved.
Last Sunday evening q crowded
congregation greeted Mr.. Frost, VIII,
preached what WAS considered tn,
sblest discourse he has delivered II

sermon an impressive silence prevail

from the Hebrews: For he had ne

to suffer affliction with the people o

His sermons and talks are very inter

hesved ana strained Ia accomplish the
feat Little did they know the hired
yirl was watching the performance
with breathless interest through q
X not hole in the barn. A few hours
later the hired girl was missing. After
yelling To her dozen times search
was instigated. She was not in the
house, neither was she at the barn.
The searching party repaired to the
milk house. There was the girl pros
trate on the floor, with both heels
around her neck and utterly unable TO
get them loose. She was so upset that
she said she would have died before
calling for help.-ChestDut.
